When the Big Problem in Public Schools is With Principals,

it's no surprise that a key solution to the problem is for teachers--not parents, and certainly NOT cronies in the front office--to pick the principal.  I believe Norway does this as well.

The privatizers don't know or care because the continued existence of public education is not on their agenda.
